HMPK Betta Splendens #T200

Give your freshwater aquarium a graceful focal point with a Betta splendens whose half-moon tail opens into a distinctive 180-degree fan. Its balanced outline brings the symmetry of its fins into view, creating a striking display under typical indoor lighting.

In a planted tank, leave open water for swimming and add dense plants with a curved retreat in a back corner. Place the aquarium along a route you pass often, so you can pause to watch its flowing fins throughout the day.

• Room to swim: Use an aquarium of at least 5 gallons and maintain the water at 76–82°F (24–28°C).
• Freshwater care: Use conditioned water at pH 6.5–7.5 and change 25% weekly.
• Gentle filtration: Choose a sponge or hang-on-back filter on low flow to help prevent fin compression.
• Sheltered layout: Add soft substrate, dense live or artificial plants, and a curved ceramic or PVC retreat in a back corner.
• Daily feeding: Offer premium pellets or flakes twice daily, with frozen brine shrimp once a week.
• Steady placement: Keep the aquarium away from direct airflow to maintain temperature swings below one degree per hour.

With open water to explore and a calm retreat nearby, your betta can bring a flowing, eye-catching presence to your daily aquarium view.
